                        The Visitor 

Spacecraft to base... 
I send you this message although I know that you shall not receive it for 
2000 years. I have returned to Sol 3 and I have found the conditions that 
we expected to find. my report and data follows.... 

On the day of my arrival I observed that the planet's atmosphere had 
changed drastically. It had become polluted and radioactive. 
On the second day I sent a probe down to the eastern section. 
the probe showed me video of nothing but dead bodies all around. 
On the third day I took the ship down to what had been a major city, I found 
no life of any kind there at all. 
On the fourth day I landed in the western section where I found one of the 
natives of this poor world. I was surprised that he did not fear me. 
The only thing he said was:'this in my country commie,get out!!' Then he died. 
On the fifth day I had to stay in orbit and de-radiate my self. 
On the sixth day I landed in one of the few non radioactive areas on the 
planet.What a change! There was plant life blooming and animal life around. 
It was here that I met more natives, but this time they were very friendly! 
Useing my computer as a translator we talked: 
There were only a few of them left I found out. They were all dieing of 
radiation sickness. It seem that although this section of Sol 3 was some what 
free of radiation there was still enough of it around to kill them. 
One of them asked me if I could take them with me when I left here. 
I told them that this was unusual for me to do,but that if they would help me 
gather data on this planet then I could take one male and one female child 
with me,so that their race could continue anew someplace else. 
They agreed.... 
On the seventh day I had filled the data banks full of information about this 
planet and it's two atomic wars. 
It was time for me to leave,so I gathered the two Children that had been 
selected and I took off... 

So this concludes my report. The children are in hibernation and I am in 
transit to Xignis X6 to drop the two young colonists.
